Support Energy and Water Savings in NC Public Buildings

NCBPA, members and partners believe that North Carolina should raise the bar on energy and water savings goals for state-owned buildings. At last week’s Lobby Days, we spoke with legislators about the $1.3B in utility savings that state and local governments have benefited from since 2003 and how increasing the state’s goal from 30% to 40% would continue this valuable work.

With roughly $60M in state funding yielding $1.3B in savings since 2003, what better investment could be made?

House of Representatives) to increase the state’s goal to 40% by 2025. Doing so will save state and local governments money, spur local economic development and create local jobs.
